Recently saw a video on X of one of our congress people trip themselves in a congress room assembly area that has stadium style stepped flooring. My immediate thought was to sarcastically imagine her jumping back up and shouting "Ban All Steps!! They are a trip hazard!!"

She was alright. The video did not show it but I imagine she had just stepped down. Forgot it was there, backed up and whoops.

Wonder if a 'Save the Steps!' campaign needs to be started...

My niece who played trombone in the high school band, found that she had to switch to playing a tuba BECAUSE they banned trombones, they were worried about the kids getting wacked by the slides. Trombones have been a mainstay of marching bands for ages and ages and I've never heard of a kid getting injured by an errant slide.

They are banning Social Media in Australia for accounts registered to anyone <16yrs old to protect kids... any kid with the IQ of their shoe size will just use a VPN.. Youtube, stalkerbook, instragram etc

Yes Im serious!!! Another stupid idea from some committee with no idea

Oh and to prove your old enough they want people to send in copy of your drivers license, passport etc... Except everyone is giving them the finger on the idea with massive privacy concerns to start with...

The idiots are in charge
